"Ubisoft's Stance on Gaming: Ownership, Subscriptions, and Sustainability"

TL;DR Summary
Ubisoft's new subscription service, Ubisoft+, allows gamers to stream a wide catalog of games, but with a catch for those who have already purchased the games at full price. Ubisoft's director of subscriptions announced that gamers can only play their purchased games on weekends and some school nights if they've been good, sparking criticism from fans who feel their ownership rights are being restricted. The move has led to backlash from gamers who see it as another attempt to take away their ownership privileges, with some expressing frustration and planning to take their games elsewhere.
